Positive training outcomes and transfer is perhaps a viable result to be expected from any training intervention. Earlier studies related to training effectiveness tend to focus on training design and implementation.

Knowledge of such influences would help enterprises and HRD practitioners to plan and implement training programs more effectively in order to maximize results.
